Car and motorcycle Racing Anthony Kumpen has to be the first to respond to his positive dopingplas. The Limburger tested in August 2018 positive during the 24 Hours of Zolder. There were then in his urine, traces of amphetamine were recovered. In a comment responding Kumpen bemused at the decision.

“I with surprise learned of the publications that today about me have appeared”, left Kumpen know in a press release. “I deny emphatically ever doping to have used in an effort to my performance or endurance by illegal means to promote.”

The 40-year-old racepiloot blames the positive test on the use of medications for ADHD. It contains the substance dexedrine. The racer, one of Belgium’s best pilots in circuitwedstrijden, disputed that the medication without a doctor’s prescription would have taken. “After a heavy accident in Tours were my known symptoms of ADHD stronger, so that further medication seemed essential. This medication was prescribed by a doctor.”

Kumpen is not in agreement with the decision of the disciplinary commission of NADO Flanders to him for four years on the side. “I signed an appeal against that decision and go in anticipation of the ruling on appeal. Me are portrayed as intentional dopingzondaar is totally false, particularly vexing, and highly harmful. The law stipulates that provisional suspensions through secure and confidential channels of communication to the sport clubs be communicated. Since this is here not respected, I decided to be a lawyer Omar Souidi to turn to the responsible of this error to sue before the competent court.”
